A village wedding

Yesterday I was lucky enough to be bridesmaid and get to walk with one of my oldest friends down the aisle. It seems like forever we have been planning and getting ready for this day, and it finally happened. The whole run up was so much fun, and I loved every minute, helping to set up the barn, making the flowers for her, the bridesmaids and the button holes, getting to spend time with her just sorting the little bits. Being a bridesmaid feels like such an honour, and I cant get over how much I enjoyed the whole process.

Nicola looked amazing, her dress was stunning, if a little warm, as it was a roasting day! But the setting was perfect, with the ceremony being held in the little church on the roman wall, and the reception in a gorgeous barn just down the road. The hazy summers day and endless blue skies were more than we could have asked for, and it felt like such a relaxed and happy day! Me and Suze ended up in a puddle of tears at the church, as it was such a lovely ceremony, and such an emotional experience seeing one of your best friends so happy to be marrying such a lovely man! It really was wonderful! And I am so glad I was able to be a part of it <3
